The Blackbird, Ponteland

Once the site of a historic castle and now the home of a much-loved Ponteland pub, The Blackbird is a venue steeped in character.

A popular choice for both drinking and dining with a huge outdoor space to enjoy the better weather, the pub pays homage to its impressive past by complementing its original features with charming rustic décor.

Priding itself on delivering a modern British menu that treads the line between fine dining and gastropub, The Blackbird accommodates for everything from a light lunch to a sit-down dinner.

The egg sando on the lunch menu is well worth ordering, and the Sundy lunch is one of the best in the area.
